What is ex parte provisional relief in international litigation?
Ex parte provisional relief is a term used in international litigation law in Alaska. It refers to the immediate and temporary action a court can take to protect a party in an international legal dispute before a full hearing is held. Generally, the court will grant an injunction or restraining order to prevent further harm or irreparable damage to the petitioner’s rights. For example, if one party in an international legal matter is in danger of having their interests significantly harmed before a full hearing due to the other party taking action, the threatened party can receive rapid relief from a provisional order. The provisional order requires the other party to cease the action and can prevent further harm to the requesting party’s rights. The hearing for a provisional order is often done “ex parte”, which means the opposing party is not present. The purpose of granting an ex parte provisional relief in an international legal dispute is to prevent a party from suffering harm or prejudice that cannot be easily redressed if a full hearing is only held after the damage has already been done. It is a temporary measure until a full hearing can take place.
